The Biography of William Constantine Culbertson

William Constantine Culbertson, representative, was born in Edinboro, Pa., Nov. 27, 1825; son of Andrew Columbus and Margaret (Alexander) Culbertson; grandson of William and Margaret Culbertson, and a descendant in the fifth generation from John Culbertson, who came from Ireland to America and settled in Pennsylvania in 1712. The family came originally from Kelso, Scotland, removing to Ireland in 1665. William acquired a common school education and engaged in lumbering and farming in different sections west and south and at his home in Girard, Pa. He was a Republican representative in the 51st congress, 1889-91, and afterward carried on his various business enterprises in banking, railroading and lumbering from his home at Girard.
